We really are blowing up the roster!

[Coogs]

Got to give it up for Herm and CP! A fresh new approach is something I have hoped for for a couple of years now. I didn't think the front office had the nads to do something like this... and it appears we are not done blowing it up yet... and I am 100% behind this approach. Even if we do not have a fantastic year in the won/loss column, you will not see Coogs doing any bashing of the Chiefs this next football season. Once again....

[ROYC75]

The players changes are refreshing, but we still have Herm as a HC, so game planning, clock management will still be the same.


Expect the same average results from a younger, faster sqaud.......

Hometown boy with good hands. Average size and speed but plays smart and can catch.

Gage signed with the Titans... I don't know much about him other than he never developed in CHI.

I agree with what most of you guys said about the Herm's team develpment and draft skillz, but my jury is still WAY out in terms of his sideline abilities on game day.
Though, he was working with a new OC and mainly DV's players. I'm optimistically thinking he'll get better when he's got his own indoctrinated dudes in there. A physical, run-heavy O and the "cover who?" becomes the Tampa Two.

Yeah, I know, then I'll win the Lottery and Marry Pamela Anderson.

But I'm thinking that a rebuilding year is the best we can hope for. Give me one Flea-flicker for a TD and I'll be satisfied.

Unless a CB is getting an Int you really dont want to hear their names called..

Law was on it come play offs though. that guy is just ****ing clutch

[CoMoChief]

Starting Defense

DE Hali
DE Allen
DT Boone
DT Reed (sign Ian Scott, Carl)
OLB Edwards
MLB Harris
OLB Johnson
CB Law
CB Surtain
FS Page
SS Pollard

Not too bad...

[Direckshun]

He'd have to sign Reed first, CoMo.

Bryant has talent, but he is a headcase.

I would imagine they're intending to give an opportunity to either Webb (6th rounder last year) or Hannon (UFA last). They're both big guys (Webb's 6'2, 211; Hannon's 6'3, 205) with some speed who had last year to learn the playbook. Kennison is still around. Then add a pick or two into the mix.

Just my guess. It wouldn't shock me to see a cheap signing, but I don't think any of the receivers are worth what they're going for this offseason. I'd be just as satisfied with staying away unless you can get a real deal. McCardell, for instance, I think would be a bad idea at this point unless it's for a song. Don't want to tie up future cap dollars, especially not for a geezer, when we're apparently working at cleaning the cupboard

Just the way I see it right now.

No way I want Bryant or McCardell. Another problem child and a guy so old he needs a walker.

Wilford and Hackett and the 2 most interesting to me, because they are still young. That backfires though, as they are both RFA. Engram or Moulds would be work a short-term flyer, but still won't be cheap.

True, Bryant is talented and a major headcase but he'll also be missing the first 2 games of the year for a violation of the league's substance abuse policy.
It's 4 in total. He missed his first 2 at the end of last season. Sort of the reason the 49'ers released him.
